  • she's married to simon¡/!very talented !!

  • One of my favorite albums of all time."Shooting Rubberbands At The Stars" is a phenomenal album. It reminds me of when I met my wife 20 years ago. This album represents so much in my life that I could never part with such a beautiful collection of songs.

  • good song

  • oh yeah, I named my kid after her, Brickell,, what an AWEsome daugther, and knew her in Deep Ellum, but yet she can't give me the respect of talking or e-mailing me on my daughters 20th birthday?!? She is too HIGH

  • OMG, I wore this tape out! Thanks for posting.

  • ha lala lala lalalala

  • Being alone sure is liberating.You don't have to put up any false pretenses to anyone. You don't have feel like you are compelled to do what people want.You can truly say to others -'4uck off'

  • Check out Phoebe Peek, she's just thirteen years old from England and writing the most amazing stuff, love her Careful What You Wish For - back to the old days of real singer songwriters

  • Edie's songs suit her so well. Let's also give credit to band NEW BOHEMIANS! great song writing. so fresh and nice. just always good singalong feel good songs you can relate to. Great collaborating. The stars were aligned when edie and NB hooked up. Great! Great! Love it.

  • I never knew they had a video for this song! I love how it is set in a coffee house, in the same style of the song.

  • great song and videao. Love Edie. There seems to be a tension at play in video, that all the guys want Edie. Edie just wants to be left alone. Great drama....

  • I too forgot about this song, until someone helped me remember it and put me back on ground. When I'm all alone, nobody else can say goodbye =( great song....so real

  • uwielbiałam tą piosenkę kiedyś...

    teraz też...

  • This is a top drawer song, no doubt!

  • I had forgotten about this song until it was played in an episode of American Dad.

  • but they didnt write it.they bought it from somone name barbara.she is the one who wrote it.not them.but its still great

  • more info please

  • well she bought and from a girl named barbara.i would say the last name but that TOO much info.i no her.i swear.and she wrote this song.this on and the song nothing.she wrote another one but i forget wat its called....so yea

  • Are you sure about that ? I have the original album here in front of me, and according to the info on the sleeve, the lyrics are written by Edie and the music by band member Kenny Withrow.

  • The guy who shot Pantera's old guitar player thought he wrote a bunch of Pantera songs too.

    Have the doorman check for Barbaras, Edie....

  • Comment removed

  • Seriously one of the best songs ever.

  • i agree

  • Edie, where are you?? One of the best songs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sad, but makes you feel -- how many songs really do that?

  • One of my faves. I cannot believe this was 20 years ago.

  • A stroll down memory lane thank you.

  • Thank you Edie...great times...

  • I remember when this album was first released. It's just as good now as it was then.

  • Good call, excellent albulm, one that defines a certain time of life, for me at least!

  • same here...I couldn't agree more

  • It always seems hard, to reach a finite point of exhaustion in which you've reached out to someone only to turn back time and again; a point where you have to take care of yourself and let the other person go... hoping they will eventually come back around.

  • edie was always sooooooooo hot in my book

  • this is an absolut classic.

  • Bravissima!

  • i heard this song for the first time when i saw cold case on tv and my mom wanted me to get her this song so i watched the same ep this song was played and then the voice of the singer sounded familier and then it hit me that it was the singer that sings what i am.

  • I heard this song yesterday on the new episode of Ugly Betty and I just loved it.

  • Dido! =)

  • Yeah, it really fit the scene well :)

  • Ok i like this....Nice Ok

  • Este tema es muy hermoso, te llega a la fibra.

    La melodía y los acordes de la guitarra son buenísimos y la interpretación espectacular.

    Un clasico de las buenos, para escuchar y recordar siempre.

  • Hey Gang, I am a 42 year old Disc Jockey and My son is 20................He loves this and is extremely picky for his age. Listen to the lyrics and love it.................Best from Tracy

  • splendida MERAVIGLIOSA CANZONE UNA DELLE PIU' BELLE DEGLI ULTIMI 18 ANNI DA THE CALIENTI

  • I fell in Love with this girl the first time I saw her on MTV back when they played real music...The same year Shooting rubberbands at the stars came out.

  • This song is beatiful and her is hot! :d

  • Esta cancion me recuerda un momento muy especial en mi vida... Todo es temporal ... pues si

  • Ohh dropping loads!!!!!!!

  • I think edie married that old man from the Beatles, you know the one that is still alive. (Ringo doesn't count)

  • she's married to Paul Simon from Simon and Garfunkle

  • WTF you're talking about???

  • She married Paul Simon from Simon&Garfunkle

  • Tigersdfw (doesn't count doesn't matter) before you try to be cute. Educate yourself GOOBER!

  • Such an amazing voice!

  • lyrics defying me all these years.

  • Beautiful song!

  • the most beatiful song that I heared.....

  • This is a song of a star!

  • I can't believe this song has been one of my absolute favourites for over 20 years now!

  • im sorry did i say cute i meant beautiful

  • HOW CUTE IS SHE

  • I think MC hammer said it best Sugarland cant touch this.....

  • her hair is awsome!

  • i first heard this song as a cover by sugarland and i loved it but i like it by edie brickell but i like sugarlands version better. Jennifers voice is more powerful.

  • Her voice is sooo beautiful in this song. :)

  • yes, beautiful voice!

  • Bottom line is tho its most peaceful to be solo........it accomplishes nothing does it :)

  • when Im all alone its the best way to be..........Or is it :)

  • A deep profound song, that touches the soul. Once in a great while among the sea of songs that comes out today, you"ll find a great song that relates to our lifes and touches the soul. This is one of them. Thank you to edie brickell & new bohemians

  • I love the intro.

  • This song has been used as sountrack in the TV movie Alice Nevers...very beautiful song!

  • wft? is this in "spam" couse it's in Spanish

  • wonderful song...and i too remember a lot of things by it...and also love 'cold case'!...

  • i love this song! it always makes me think of my dad, because he played it ALL THE TIME in his car.

    the message is really sad, but i guess that's what makes it a good song

  • bella

  • a lovely song ...takes me back to memories..

  • Comment removed

  • Just heard this on an episode of "cold case" titled "sleepover" from 2004, and what a beautiful flashback it was! brilliant..timeless..impeccabl­e...

  • brings back memories! thanks!

  • Merci à la série Cold Case pour m'avoir fait découvrir cette chanson magnifique !!

  • L'épisode avec la soirée pyjama des petites... Un des plus beau épisodes^^ tellement émouvant :p

  • Tout à fait ! soirée pyjama épisode 6 de la saison 2 ! un de mes préférés ! Rita est une jeune fille rare !

  • Sa fait plaisir de voir quelqu'un qui suit bien Cold Case :) Mon préféré c'est avec le déficient mental et son lapin... je ne connais pas le titre mais enorme^^

  • Ah oui, épisode 15 saison 2 "Fais un voeux" une mère malade en phase terminale et les dessins sur la tombe qui permettent de réouvrir l'enquête.

  • Ouii c'est celui la^^. La j'en regarde plus trop en ce moment , revision pour le bac oblige, mais vendredi jm'y remet^^

  • Edie Brickell = Greatness

  • this is a great song, makes me want to go out and buy edie brickell for the third cursed time. I already bought the cassette once, the cd once (lost it long time ago) and now I would have to buy it for the third time. Go see a movie or buy edie brickell cd, big decision. Got to think that over.

  • Edie Brickell is simply the best!!!

    Please dont get old on us.

    You and Paul Rule!

  • In the hippies world in my mind .She is my favorite girlfriend, is an angel.

  • Lindo!

  • you´re right. unfortunately is more real every day between the young people.

  • Comment removed

  • I never realized before how much she resembles Carrie Fischer! They look like sisters - odd..

  • Why do we have to hear about broken dreams

    and desillusions of a young girl out of a voice

    so sweet and full of innocence like Edie Brickel's...?  She's right... nothing is good enough for anybody

    even when all the fame, fortune and glory was not

    good enough for her either.

  • This song and I Do were the most haunting on the album. My brother still thanks me for introducing him to this band. (That last sentence should be read as, "Motherfucker stole my CD when he left for university.")

  • Very nice! I am playing this song as i type for a dance for mentally challanged..someone asked for this song...I think its a pretty good song

    Thanks From all of us at the dance!!

  • This is so Beautiful -5*****

  • Very nice song. (:

  • GALINA, THIS SONG IS FOR YOU.

  • ....nobody else can say goodbye

  • my favorite song ^^

    really love this song <3

  • Great lyric

  • Comment removed

  • Wow... is it just me, or does the guy at 2:24 look a little bit like Ray Manzerac?

  • Lol yeah, I think he's playing on the wrong band.. and the wrong year!

  • i understand this, i can't never let go, love this song n band

  • hahah i heard this song on a video in my health class. and i have to say it was my faveorite part of the video!!! i love this song..idk if its happy or sad. but i dont really care its just amazing!

  • what ever happened to this kind of sexy?? she is not snail trailing down the stage or TRYING to be ,she just is good old fashion talent and damn sexy wow i never tire of her and this incredible group

  • I come here often when I need some happy music....she brings something to the table musically that her own....not a word for it is there?

  • Yeah..

  • How in the world is this happy music?

  • It makes me feel happy...to quit and give up trying to please everyone else when they're never satisfied anyhow. Being by myself relieved me of the duties of listening to people spill their shite attitudes on me....Being alone is the best way to be! I feel much better : P Lol  Jameson also makes me feel pretty happy too Irishninja!

  • I feel that.

  • A-freaking-men.

  • This kind of sexy married Paul Simon.

  • This songs brings me sweet memories when I was in college.

  • this song is about surrendering i think and not trying to please yourself and other people and just being happy with what is.

  • Seriously? You really think that? It's obviously about some douche that just left her and her feeling upset about it. "Everything is temporary...being by myself is the best place to be...nobody can say goodbye when you're alone." I quit I give up, I'm going to stop trying because relationships are too hard.

  • I will never get tired of hearing this song... I hope they play it in heaven!

  • WOW its been YEARS since I heard this song. it was in a movie about suicide we watched in class WOW the memories this song brings back......

  • good song

  • OH I LOVE THIS SONG THANKS!

  • love da song! :) thanks for adding it! :)

  • Oh i get it, maybe she's sad about losing touch with someone she liked a lot, and now she' trying to talk herself into feeling better about the situation. But she's really not happy.

  • i wonder what this song is about exactly.

  • The new stuff isn't as good as her old group. Pitty. I wonder what Paul Simon did to her :-)

  • I'd love to do to her what Paul Simon did to her. ;)

  • Great song and I think she is so pretty

  • what changes since I first heard this. I love the melody and lyrrics. I really would love to hear the story of this -since it holds so many of our memories. Did I say I love the melodrama- I will post a vid to leave a stamp.

  • Memories! I remember seeing them in Dallas at the local clubs before they made it big. I love their music!

  • i love this song.=)

  • there' s something pure and original in her voice...

    it really hurts thinking that it's almost impossible today listening someone who sings like that ...
